We study Onsager's free energy functional for nematic liquid crystals with an orientation parameter on a unit circle. For a class of interaction potentials we obtain explicit expressions for all critical points, analyze their stability, and construct the corresponding bifurcation diagram. We also derive asymptotic exp…

Aluminium borophosphate gels and glasses with different compositions are prepared, for the first time, via the sol–gel process using aluminium lactate, boric acid and phosphoric acid as precursors. This glass-forming range is significantly wider than that accessible via the melt cooling route. The route from the solut…

The preparation of supramolecular hydrogels containing various inorganic acids and salts using L-lysine-based hydrogelators is conducted and their thermal stabilities, gel strengths, FT-IR spectra, and electron micrographs are measured. These hydrogelators can form supramolecular hydrogels over a wide pH range and con…

Supercritical fluid extrusion (SCFX) is a recent technological development for production of expanded starch-based foams in which formation of a microcellular structure is achieved by injection of supercritical CO2 into the melt. The high effective diffusivity of CO2 in the porous matrix favors escape of the gas to th…

Powder X-ray diffraction experiments have been performed to analyse the structural order in alkylene bridged silsesquioxanes. These organic–inorganic hybrids were obtained by the hydrolysis–condensation of a series of six α,ω-bis[triethoxysilyl(propyl)ureido]alkylenes associating hydrophobic alkylene units with variou…

Flurbiprofen-nicotinamide solid dispersions were prepared by the fusion method. The solid dispersions were evaluated for dissolution rate. The drug-carrier interaction in the liquid and solid states were studied by using phase solubility analysis, phase diagram, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and differential scanning calor…

We have synthesized highly birefringent liquid-crystalline polymers (LCPs) containing an azobenzene group directly connected to a tolane moiety (P3ATm), in which the alkyl spacer length (CH2)m was varied as m = 6, 9 and 12. All LCPs showed a nematic phase in a broad temperature range (>170 °C). The homogeneously align…

Divalent surfactant [CH3(CH2)15N(CH3)2(CH2)3N(CH3)3]2+2Br− (C16-3-1) was exploited as a structure directing agent (SDA) for the synthesis of highly ordered periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs) from 1,2-bis(triethoxysilyl)ethane (BTEE) as organosilica source under basic conditions. The mesophase structure/symmetry…

Abstract Electrical properties of Er‐doped SnO 2 thin films obtained by sol‐gel‐dip‐coating technique were measured. When compared to undoped tin dioxide, rare‐earth doped films present much higher resistivity, indicating that Er 3+ presents an acceptor–like character into the matrix, which leads to a high degree of e…

A new indicator of the potential for the formation of an equiaxed zone during alloy solidification is proposed. The indicator, or equiaxed index, is calculated from the predictions of a numerical model of non-equilibrium columnar solidification. This model uses a front-tracking approach to simulate the nucleation and…

Disagreements on the Raman gain response of different tellurite-based glasses, measured at different wavelengths, have been recently reported in the literature. In order to resolve this controversy, a multi-wavelength Raman cross-section experiment was conducted on two different TeO2-based glass samples. The estimated…
